Easy No Bake Blueberry Cheesecake Recipe - Perfect Summer Dessert!
Ingredients
- Graham cracker1 ¾ cups
- Sugar1 tbsp + ⅔ cups + 2 tbsp
- Butter8 tbsp
- Cream cheese16 oz
- Sour cream2 tbsp
- Lemon3 tbsp
- Cream1 cup
- Blueberry · frozen4 cups
- Water for fresh berries⅓ cups
- Cornstarch2 tbsp
Instructions
- Make the blueberry topping: in a medium saucepan, combine water, lemon juice, sugar and cornstarch, and stir until the cornstarch dissolves. Set over medium heat and stir until it starts to thicken, about 1 minute.
- Add the blueberries and bring to a boil, stirring gently and occasionally. Cook 5 to 6 minutes, until the berries release juice and turn syrupy. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
- Make the crust: finely crush the graham crackers in a food processor, put the crumbs in a bowl, and mix in 1 tablespoon sugar and 8 tablespoons melted butter until evenly moistened.
- Line a 9-inch springform pan with parchment and press the crumbs into the bottom and 1/2 inch up the sides. Freeze 15 minutes or refrigerate 30 minutes to set.
- Beat the cream cheese and 2/3 cup sugar on medium-high for 3 minutes until smooth and fluffy, scraping the bowl as needed. Add the sour cream and lemon juice and beat for another minute.
- Wash the beaters. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream on medium-high for about 3 minutes until stiff peaks form.
- Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined.
- Pour half the filling over the cooled crust. Spoon 1/4 of the cooled blueberry sauce over it and swirl lightly.
- Pour the rest of the filling on top and smooth it. Spoon and swirl another 1/4 of the blueberry sauce over the top.
- Cover and refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight to set. Top each slice with the remaining blueberry sauce to serve.
